Had the last race been restarted for the last lap with no back markers moved out of their existing positions, between Max and Lewis then it's entirely possible that Max could have overtaken all 5 and Lewis in the final lap. I for one would have happily accepted that as a result.
However, that's not what happened, some of the back markers were allowed to overtake, but only the 5 between Max and Lewis, which was against the rule which states all such cars should be allowed to overtake the safety car. The adjacent rule says that after all back markers have overtaken the safety car, the race restarts at the beginning of the next lap. In this case that would be at the end of the final lap, and so the finish would have been under the safety car up to the safety car line just before the final corner. Needing only to negotiate the final corner, with no overtaking allowed until the finish line Lewis would have won.
The hybrid choice of application of the rules to ensure a new 'World Champion' was against the spirit of sport and was, in my opinion, a pure theatrical device.
Whatever the inquiry finds and recommends, for me the sport is tainted, in my case after 60+ yrs of following F1 it is the end. I wish all the teams and drivers good luck and may they gain the Steward's favour, because they'll need it.
